Issue/Introduction

One user is no longer getting any Clarity system related email notifications. It has been confirmed that email notifications are enabled for this user.

The internal SMTP administrator has confirmed that the email notifications are also not making it to the server.

What could be preventing the user emails from reaching the email server and the user?

This is for GCP/SAAS only

Resolution

• After a certain number of bounced emails is reached, the emails stop being sent out.
• Please open a case to have the Clarity Support team remove the user from the suppression/bounced list to once again allow emails to be sent to the particular user in question.
• Note that if the emails are getting bounced for a valid reason, they will continue being bounced even after they have been removed from the bounced list.
• One possible reason being that they are being blocked by mimecast on the email server in your organization
